Apple rejects Samsung deal offer in Oz patent dispute

Techradar reports that Apple has rejected the deal offer, with attorney Steven Burley saying, It is one we don't accept and there is no surprise.

The main reason we are here is to prevent the launch and maintain the status quo. Samsung's lawyers now contend that a truce is not going to be achievable... given the positions advanced by each party. The case rumbles on. The deal, which Samsung put forward late last week, was dealt with by lawyers in the courtroom yesterday.
